Megan McAllister, Philip Markoff's Fiancee: Details, Photos

The arrest of alleged 'Craigslist' killer Philip Markoff has also turned the spotlight on his fiancee, Megan McAllister, as numerous sites around the web searched for details about the couple.

McAllister defended her fiance in an email to ABC News Tuesday, saying the police had the wrong man:

Unfortunately, you were given wrong information as was the public. All I have to say to you is Philip is a beautiful person inside and out and could not hurt a fly! A police officer in Boston (or many) is trying to make big bucks by selling this false story to the TV stations. What else is new?? Philip is an intelligent man who is just trying to live his life so if you could leave us alone we would greatly appreciate it. We expect to marry in August and share and wonderful, meaningful life together.

She made similar statements to the Boston Herald.

The couple had a website for their wedding, www.megan-philip.com, which has now been taken down. The AP reports the following details, as found on the website:

Markoff and his fiancee met in 2005 while volunteering at a medical center near SUNY Albany, and they were engaged in May 2008. They had planned to marry Aug. 14 on a beach at sunset in Long Branch, N.J. The couple also had registered for kitchen goods and housewares from Pottery Barn, Macy's and Williams-Sonoma.

Here are some photos from that site.

"We expect to marry in August and share and wonderful, meaningful life together."
Even though loe is amoral....­..looks like it's time for an Oprah intervention.

Lady needs a BS detector.

I am sympathetic to the fragile mental state this lovely young woman must be in. My only question is why aren't the people who love her ensuring that she avoids the press, and refrains from making any public statements that could hurt her or her fiancée’s defense. And no, I am not suggesting that there is a defense for him as he seems to have admitted to the despicable and heinous crimes he is alleged to have committed.

None are so blind as those who will not see ...

This poor young ladiy's whole life and dreams have just came crashing down around her and I'm sure she is in complete denial. She has been living the dream and planning their wedding and her life with this young man (ki||er) for a few years now and within a few minutes, hours, and days her whole life as she knew it is completely gone. I'm sure we would all feel the same way if we found out that someone we were in complete love with and trused with our life was a murderer - we'd all be a little stunned. She just wants everything to back to pre-finding out about this so she can continue the life she WAS leading. She will some day realize how lucky she was she didn't marry the guy.

Dear Megan,
Please run don't walk to the nearest exit......­Then get yourself to the doctor for a complete workup and whatever pill it will take to rid you of 'him'.

Warning: Love may cause mental and emotional blindness

Markoff may be the real Dr. Jekyll and Hyde, a very nice person to his folks but a monster to strangers.

Megan is lucky she survived to disrespect the Boston PD.

These guys don't bother the ones they are close too, and they don't strike too close to home... BTK was married for instance and his wife was completely unaware he offed the woman down the street.

You can't always be sure about that...she could have eventually been handed the same fate as Laci Peterson.
